What is Powdered Dextrose?

RE: What is Powdered Dextrose? By windtalker (1) Contact Powdered dextrose is a form of a sweetener that is suppose to be better for you than fructose. I'm fructose intolerant. So I have to have something else for a sweetener. You can order dextrose from Amazon.com. I just got mine in can't wait to try it out in my baking.

I've been using some sweeteners with dextrose in it. Is this dextrose a fattening sweetener too? Posted on 07/30/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: What is Powdered Dextrose? By mmka1 (1) Profile Contact It is (in the U.S.) a corn sweetener product, and many people (some unknowingly) are allergic to it. It would be better [safer] to use regular beet or cane sugar.

I'm not sure what advantage it would have over regular confectioners (powdered) sugar, but the e-Bay site claims it is "an ideal nutrient that assists fermentation and gives the desired tangy flavor. Dextrose is heavier than meat and forces itself into the cells of meat." Personally I'd be inclined to try a small batch of whatever I was making with regular powdered sugar and see how it turned out. I wonder if anyone could tell the difference.
